Carnivore Diet by Julia Slavin

A wildly imaginative tragicomedy about a fantastical animal on the prowl and its affection for one troubled family.
"Wildly imagined, precisely rendered and weirdly moving" -- San Francisco Chronicle
"Carnivore Diet gleams with grisly absurdity…bracingly inventive." -- Time Out New York
"Wicked and wild . . . dark and delicious." -- Vanity Fair
"Loaded with energy, humor, irreverence, intelligence, compassion—and dialogue that’s as snappy as anything you’ll hear on Comedy Central. . . . Washington is probably the least magical place of the face of the Earth, yet Slavin turns it into a crazy funhouse. . . . There’s almost nothing ordinary about Carnivore Diet, and that’s a large part of its appeal." -- Washington Post Book World
Julia Slavin is the author of the New York Times Notable Book The Woman Who Cut Off Her Leg at the Maidstone Club. She lives in Washington, DC.
